Okay, but joint top scorer last season from midfield in a harder league than we are in now, isnt a bad return for in your opinion such a poor player.
Does Kilbane offer the same goal threat from the left?
Mcca, had his moments last season no doubt, but he was way too inconsistent.
What people forget, Juke scored the (1) more goal than Mcca in the league and that was to January, mcca had a whole season! Take away his 2-3 pens, he scored 5-6, not that good is it. (note: I do recognise Juke also scored pens)
When you ask does Kilbane offer the same goal threat down the left... Do you mean down the left wing in a 4-4-2 or left of the diamond?
Left midfield, yes he does, but not by that much, he was rubbish down the left under AB, he can't cross to save his life, overall... Poor winger!
Left of the diamond? let's not go there, Mcca admitted that he was the worst defender in the league (Championship) and to have him on the left of the diamond would leave Hussey exposed, people moan of Kilbane's ability to cover him, imagine mcca!
Also, Mcca wouldn't suit LCM, too little room for him to attack (which he isn't that good at anyway) and he'd have to defend...
Rather Thomas than Kilbane and Mcca sheff at LCM.
